Lincoln Park; it used to be a neighbourhood of homes prior to the 1997 flood; homes were damaged in the flood and had to be demolished. Now it's a city park

Oh... I remember my whirlwind trip to Grand Forks to cover the flood.
The place must be completely different.
Happy thoughts to everyone in GF. I wonder what downtown looks like now, after the newspaper building fire.

The newspaper building moved; there is now this 8 foot brick wall that lines the river. If there is a threat of a flood, huge metal doors close so that water won't get in. (http://images.publicradio.org/content/2007/04/10/20070410_floodwall_2.jpg)
Downtown has been revitalized; there is a huge farmer's market in the summer on Saturdays and there are now a lot of restauraunts there and some businesses that were there prior to the flood have moved back.
